Its called pan on most mixers and effects units.

There is an effect on the efx500 called "Jet" that sounds like that (if I read what you are describing correctly). Couple that with a panning effect and only do that either to the mids or do that to one record while another is playing and you prob. will get what you are describing.

being that i live right by JFK airport.......i believe u are looking for the flanger.........

one thing beginning djs should keep in mind when using effects

less is more

the less you use the effects, the more of an impact they'll have when you use them

+1 to the Jet effect. One of the many reasons I want an EFX500.

is the efx500 the "standard" as far as effects machines go?

-keith

also, does the allen & heath xone 92 have any built-in effects?
